Canada in Five

July 15- day one all over again.

Day ones always seem to be so magnificent; the start of a new dawn. The beginning of everything beautiful, bright, and good. The fresh cover of a book; the first unopened page.

I have found myself in more day ones than I can count; 99% due to grace. A significant part also due to human nature. This doesn’t mean it’s excusable- just that resilience still lives. Along with stubborness.

But Canada is five quick months away.

This is me procrastinating like always- this is the time left of what I have. I cannot waste any more. The past is all gone and used. All I have is what’s in front of me. Five months of resilience and strength and quietness. Five months of building my character. Five months of preparing for what is yet to come.

So we start again, day one. July 15th.

End one: October 7th.

Take each day as day one. Take each day as the beginning. Take each day as magnificent.

All you can do is start. Every day; every meal. Begin.
